Oh man this artist conceived of a pokemon-like interpretation of Ghostbusters and that is pretty much all I want in a franchise.

I recognize every single ghost he’s adapted from the toys and cartoons. In fact, a lot of my favorites are represented and they’re favorites you can see in maybe one frame of one scene of the 80′s show. I wonder if he reads my website.

The four heroines are a little proportionately homogeneous, but

Epdur - Trailer of a Game that doesn’t exist

This new RPG is about the dream of a knight in a fantasy Renaissance world, in which everyone is masked. He wants to become the greatest hero of all time! ...But is it really worth it?...

In this brand new game, you play as Epdur, the owner of a strange power that makes him able to see spirits and talk to animals. During turn-based battles, he can use the Nima Vision to precisely target some part of the enemy to discover its weak spot. But beware! When an enemy is attacking you, a quick mini-game appears, so you have to be on your toes!

Now go forth! And don’t look behind you, or you’ll be ensnared by the horrific memories of the past, which still haunt you deep in your dreams…

I made this trailer for my first year in video game art. Indeed, this game doesn’t really exist! It was a project to learn pixel art! It was simply amazing to make it and I’ve really improved thanks to it. It's inspired by Renaissance and Medieval History, and by the depths of forgotten French folklore monsters and legends.

Let's talk about Mario Nights, what was once just a blurb in an unassuming Creepypasta, brought to life in an obscure analog horror video, as we talk about everything that fascinates me about it, and everything about it that disappoints me to no end.

Learned about this video through @transistor-rhythm-909, who pointed out that this very blog gets briefly featured in the intro!

Witness all of Famicase 2018′s brilliant designs ⊟ 

All 250 entries from this year’s My Famicase Exhibition – Meteor’s showcase of cart designs for made up Famicom games – are now available for you to click through and enjoy! This is way more convenient than opening a million tabs from Twitter’s #famicase hashtag, and you can get a better sampling of the contributions from Japanese artists. Plus, there are descriptions for all of the concepts, though you may need to open Google Translate for some.

The designs we featured above come from Anna Dittmer, イイヌマ, ヤマダユウス型, 廸, NEKONOKO, イズ, Dima Goryainov, rayzones, Chris Furniss, and Liam Higgins. You can see all of the cartridges on display at Meteor’s game shop and gallery in Nakano, Tokyo until May 13.

A few of these I can elaborate on: 

Astro Robin Hood is an obscure JRPG with a "Robin Hood IN SPACE" theme. Like many RPGs of the era, it's mostly a Dragon Quest clone, but you can a build a party of out several available Merry Men. 

Star Trek - The Atlantis Bone is a Japan-exclusive Star Trek game, framed as if it were an episode of the Original Series. Some claim the story comes from an unfilmed TV script for the show, but this has never been confirmed. Japanese fans say it represents the show better than many of the other Star Trek games of the era. 

Insection - The Arcade Game is based on a bug-themed space shooter made by an obscure European dev. Oddly, the actual arcade game was never finished or released, as the games were developed concurrently and the arcade version was canceled due to financial issues. 

Metal Fighter Blaseball - An oddly misspelled baseball game with a sci-fi theme, similar to Base Wars. Some cute sprites based on tokusatsu characters and aliens, but otherwise a pretty standard baseball game for the era. 

Nigel Mansell’s Font Fighting - Japan-exclusive "action education game" meant to teach kids English and to improve handwriting. Borderline unplayable. No is sure who Nigel Mansell is. EDIT: While some assume the title refers to the race car driver Nigel Mansell, the game doesn’t feature driving a tall, nor does it have Mansell’s likeness, so your guess is as a good as anyone’s.
